There are a number of movies that have different kinds of value to me. Some for "eye candy," some for plot, some for acting, etc.

The Empire Strikes Back -part of the reason I enjoyed it was the good side was on the run and had to work harder to survive. That made it feel more "real" to me.

The Fisher King - Wow. The struggles, the pain, the victories in that movie spoke to me.

The World According to Garp - This movie makes you laugh, think, wonder, cry, and just feel.

Das Boot - I can't put my feelings into words for this right now.

Dune - Wonderful science fiction. Loved the music as well.

Alien - humans are fragile and not the top of the food chain in space.

Dr. Strangelove - It is Stanley Kubrick, what more needs to be said?

War of the Worlds - (The original 1950's version only please)

Tron

Tora! Tora! Tora!

Dragonslayer - now there is a cool looking dragon and all before computers!

Serenity

Logan's Run

Soylent Green

I can't put my feelings into words right now for some of the above movies. If I can, I will add them later.

Thats a really great list, many gems there

The Illusionist & Pans Labyrinth.

The two best movies I've ever viewed in my life.
I find them to be well made, emotionally powerful, and intelligent.
They make me think.
Even on the fourth viewing.

And they are so well made, perfectly crafted.

True masterpieces.
In my eyes, any way.

They wrapped me up in the story and left me with a pleasant taste lingering in my soul.
--
P.S

Ooh! And Soylent green, most certainty.
All thought that left a BAD flavor on my soul.
Human, that is.

Another one just popped into my head.
Whats that movie with the space man who's trying to save a huge ship load of trees from being destroyed by people who no longer care about plants?

That one is really funny i love the "matrix-scene" with the cow - its just to dumb

Young Einstein with Yahoo Serious (what a name!, way ahead of his time!)
I also think is pretty funny (nice soundtrack too).
I mean, he`s splitting atoms in his tool shed, to make more bubbles in beer
I`ve seen somewhere around 2,500 movies so far (but never seen star wars!
it just seems so uninteressting and "out-there") ,
so as soon as someone writes in this thread, theres always something that comes to mind. Many great tips people have left here, good movies.

Anyone remember the first movie they saw as a kid, first ever?
I`m thinking but not quite sure yet, dont remember the name.

Top 10 most disturbing movies of all time(not including cannibal holocaust)

El Topo, anyone seen it? weird stuff.
Sample Dialogue: "Too much perfection is a mistake."

My fave movie would have to be a tie between Drugstore Cowboy and Taxi Driver.

I probably like Taxi Driver a little bit more though.

ET, it was at a drive-in when I was between 1 and 2. Not sure if it was the first movie I saw, but it was certainly the first movie I watched.
